Gym, Gym, wherefor art thow !?!?!

I'm in park city at the moment and I finally found gym I can work out and tumble in and then I call them and a girl answers only to tell me that they are closed for the weekend. I understand it's fall break/UEA break, but seriously my gym wouldn't close if a there was a hurricane and a size 9 earthquake was about to happen. I know that's exaggerating but that's what it seems like. I guess thats why we are top in the nation. GO ARETE!!!!

Akward moments in the gym [:

The best awkward moment happened yesterday my long time friend Isaiah Shitell was walking with all his cloths in his hand to go change from his gym cloths to his street clothes. He accidentally dropped something important right in front of the girls team..........I'll let you guess what he dropped :) haha

Religious Views and Gymnastics

Thank you to all my gymnastics couches and teammates for pushing me forward to places I would have never been able to go on my own. You have pushed me to learn lessons and attributes about myself physically,emotionally, and spiritually. I love my religion with all my heart and church is not the only place you can receive guidance in our troubled times. Threw gymnastics I have been able to learn how to persevear threw trials, continue when you discourged, and not to do it alone. People are there to help you, give you advice, and pick you up when you are down. On a number of occasions I have had religious conversations with my teammates witch made me realize and grow spiritually. I thank you for all you've done in my life.

Cough Cough Gay Cough Cough

 This post goes out to all those who call gymnasts gay! 

Yes, Bronson and Bridger that means you!

•  You call us gay because of the outfits we wear, we were more clothes then wrestlers  do. We were a singlet not a leotard and we actually wear shorts and most of the time we are wearing pants. 
• Everyone loves football players for running around slapping each others butts in spandex but gymnasts are gay for just wearing spandex.
• Wrestlers, why are you calling us gay? We don't ever make contact with another man unless its an air guitar battle or  an EPIC high-5. You guys are then ones putting your paws all over another man.
• All you gay gymnasts out there, I respect your choice but you freak me out. Please pick a new sport.

Best Parts of Being A Gymnast

Gymnastics tells you no. All day long. It mocks you over and over again. Telling you you're an idiot. That you're crazy. If you like running full-speed towards a stationary object, vault's for you. If you like getting whiplash equivalent to that of a small car crash, then rings is for you. If you like pealing pieces of skin the size of quarters of your hands... high bar is for you. Because the only thing more fun then rips, is when your rips get rips. If you like the thought of taking sandpaper to your hands then Parallel bars is your event.  And floor, you dream of doing backflips after backflip and twist after twist, but no one ever imagines how bad it hurts to land, twist or flip a couple degrees to far....BAMB you land on your face. It's delicious. If you like falling, then gymnastics is thee sport for you! You get to fall on your face, your butt, your back, your knees, and your pride! It's a good thing I didn't like falling... I LOVED IT!
